One thing that I had trouble with was removing the valve seals. I initially mangled the first few trying to get at them with some needle nose pliers. **** was breaking off everywhere. I then tried to pry up one side of the seal to get a better grip and that worked way better.

Did you get your block and crank cleaned by a machine shop, or are you just sending it? If the latter, go to Autozone and rent a Cylinder Ridge Reamer - you use it to clear all the carbon at the top of the cylinders so you don't mess up your new rings and pistons.
And welcome to the Exocet family! (I have chassis #160)

How do you like your Exocet? I'm getting nervous because I've seen a bunch for sale lately. I don't get it.

I also found some time to work on removing the front of my valve cover. I have some purty adjustable cam gears that need to be seen. I think it came out okay. Now the cover, intake manifold and brake calipers can go out to powdercoating.
RIP to my 15 year old Dremel. It finally gave up the ghost right in the middle of cutting the cover. Luckily I had a spare.
